While in other leagues play continues almost uninterrupted, the Bundesliga is also set to restart this weekend. In the coming weeks and months, some players will certainly try to catch the attention of Julian Nagelsmann. 

One of them is Grischa Prömel. After missing last season due to a cruciate ligament rupture, the Hoffenheim player contributed seven scorer points in the first 15 Bundesliga games.

A little dreaming with an eye on the World Cup is surely allowed, right? In an interview on the TSG website, the offensive player said that before the season, his only goal was to get fit. Thoughts of a possible World Cup participation hadn't occurred so far: "But if Julian Nagelsmann has a crazy idea in the spring, it's clear that I would be the one most delighted about it."

Additionally, the 30-year-old revealed that he had already considered flying there as a fan to soak up the World Cup atmosphere.
